"No."

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin 6m
Secretary Noem dodged sworn testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee for a full year.

Now she expects us to rubber stamp her budget?

No.

Secretary Noem refused to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee last year and now tells us that she will be available in five weeks—should she still be DHS Secretary at that time.

With all of the violence and deaths involving DHS, the Secretary is apparently in no hurry to account for her mismanagement of this national crisis.

And she expects us to rubber stamp her record-breaking budget in the meantime.
